| 9 | description: | |
| 10 | Algorithmic complexity vulnerability in the sorting algorithms in bzip2 |
| 11 | compressing stream (BZip2CompressorOutputStream) in Apache Commons Compress |
| 12 | before 1.4.1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU |
| 13 | consumption) via a file with many repeating inputs (CVE-2012-2098). |
| 14 | |
| 15 | plexus-archiver used an embedded copy of the affected code from Apache |
| 16 | Commons Compress, and therefore was affected by this. It has been patched |
| 17 | to use the apache-commons-compress package, in which this issue has already |
| 18 | been fixed, for bzip2 compression and decompression. |
